Chapter 328: The Three Kingdoms of the Western Regions, Ganzhou Uighur!.
Dried fruits and vegetables can supplement the vitamins of soldiers anytime, anywhere.
Dried jerky and accompanying cattle, sheep and camels were the source of meat supply for the army. There is not only dried meat, but also fresh meat supply.
Moreover, those cattle, sheep and camels can themselves carry grain and grass and pull carts.
In this way, the 100,000 soldiers of the Great Zhou have a stable and balanced mobile logistics warehouse.
What’s more, from the west of Lingzhou to Yumen Pass, although there are many Gobi and deserts along the way, there are also some fertile lands and oases.
Ganzhou, Suzhou, Guazhou, Shazhou and other cities are oases and pearls located on the westbound road. There are even some grasslands in it!
For example, Ganzhou is located where a Uighur branch established a state. That Uighur is also called the Ganzhou Uighur!
But the area controlled by the Ganzhou Uighurs is by no means just a Ganzhou city.
Instead, it contains five hundred li east and west of Ganzhou, and eight hundred li south and north! It can barely be regarded as a big country with a radius of thousands of miles.
Even Hexi Prefecture counties such as Suzhou were under the rule of the Ganzhou Uighurs.
To the east of the Ganzhou Uighur, there are hundreds of miles of savanna and desert, which used to barely border Western Xia, and this is nothing to say that now after the Great Zhou destroyed Western Xia, the eastern neighbor of the Ganzhou Uighur became the Great Zhou.
However, although the border of the Great Zhou border borders the Ganzhou Uighurs, because there is a desert Gobi zone of nearly two hundred miles in the middle, there is no connection between the Ganzhou Uighurs and the Western Xia since Western Xia.
After the establishment of the Western Xia state, it was not without the idea of going west to attack the Ganzhou Uighurs and expand their territory, but they failed to do so.
First, because the main tribal party members of the Ganzhou Uighurs and Western Xia are both ancient northwestern nomadic tribes, and the combat power and tactics between the two sides are similar.
The Ganzhou Uighurs are located on the Silk Road, although the Silk Road has long been de facto severed due to years of conquests in the late Tang Dynasty and the Tubo ravages in Hexi.
But Ganzhou’s water and soil itself is very rich and beautiful. Moreover, east of Ganzhou is the Gobi separated from Lingzhou, ensuring the safety of the eastern Ganzhou Uighur.
To the south is the Qilian Mountains, which are rich in water and grass, bringing rich resources and vast grasslands to the Ganzhou Uighurs. It also allowed the Ganzhou Uighurs to raise a batch of elite horses in the Qilian Mountain pasture.
To the west of the Ganzhou Uighur is the country established by the Gaochang Uighurs of the same origin, Gaochang Uighurs can also be called Xizhou Uighurs, and there are several small kingdoms such as the Guizi Uighur under it.
The Gaochang Uighurs were more powerful than the Xizhou Uighurs, but because the west of the Gaochang Uighurs was controlled by the Karakhan Kingdom, although the Gaochang Uighurs had the intention of unifying the Uighur tribes and bringing the Ganzhou Uighurs under his command, it did not have a chance.
North of the Ganzhou Uighur, there is a grassland, which is connected to the Mobei grassland, and in ancient times, the Xiongnu’s Right Sage King, Right Valley Li King and other tribes thrived here.
During the Tang Dynasty, this was the tribal fiefdom of the Turkic little khan After only a thousand years have passed, the Xiongnu have become the dust of history, and only the Ganzhou Uighur has occupied that rich pasture and become one of the overlords of the Western Regions!
And Chai Hao, the son of the Great Zhou Tianzi, the first battle destination of this western expedition is Ganzhou Huihu!.
